In this short note we determine the set $\Phi^\infty(7)$ of Abelian groups that appear as torsion groups of infinitely many elliptic curves (up to $\overline \mathbb Q$-isomorphism) over number fields of degree 7.
We show that any non abelian free group $\F$ is strongly $\aleph_0$-homogeneous, i.e. that finite tuples of elements which satisfy the same first-order properties are in the same orbit under $\Aut(\F)$. We give a characterization of…
We describe groups elementarily equivalent to a free metabelian group with n generators. We also explore an exponentiation that naturally occurs in metabelian groups.
We define torsion pairs for quasi-abelian categories and give several characterisations. We show that many of the torsion theoretic concepts translate from abelian categories to quasi-abelian categories. As an application, we generalise the…
An almost Abelian Lie group is a non-Abelian Lie group with a codimension 1 Abelian normal subgroup. The majority of 3-dimensional real Lie groups are almost Abelian, and they appear in all parts of physics that deal with anisotropic media…
The purpose of this article is to prove that the category of cocommutative Hopf $K$-algebras, over a field $K$ of characteristic zero, is a semi-abelian category. Moreover, we show that this category is action representable, and that it…
We study to what extent group $C^\ast$-algebras are characterized by their unitary groups. A complete characterization of which Abelian group $C^\ast$-algebras have isomorphic unitary groups is obtained. We compare these results with other…
Let $A$ be a finite rank torsion--free abelian group. Then there exist direct decompositions $A=B\oplus C$ where $B$ is completely decomposable and $C$ has no rank 1 direct summand. In such a decomposition $B$ is unique up to isomorphism…
This paper considers non-Abelian homology groups of a group diagram introduced as homotopy groups of a simplicial change. We prove a theorem stating that the non-Abelian homology groups of a group diagram are isomorphic to the homotopy…
We constract various subgroups of the group of isometries of universal Urysohn spaces (unique complete separable metric space which is iniversal and homogeneous) including abelian groups which act transitively, and free groups which are…
It has been claimed by Halmos in [Comment on the real line, Bull. Amer. Math. Soc., 50 (1944), 877-878] that if G is a Hausdorff locally compact topological abelian group and if the character group of G is torsion free then G is divisible.…
We prove that in a torsion-free hyperbolic group, an element is a test element if and only if it is not contained in a proper retract.
In this article, we provide a general set-up for arbitrary linear Lie groups $H\leq \mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ which allows to characterise the almost Abelian Lie algebras admitting a torsion-free $H$-structure. In more concrete terms,…
The paper gives a complete description of the subgroups of the semigroup of tropical n-by-n matrices up to an isomorphism. In particular, we show that every of these groups has a torsion-free abelian subgroup of index at most n!, proving…
Torsion theories are a pinnacle in the theory of abelian categories. They are a generalization of torsion abelian groups and in this generalization one of the most studied is that whose torsionfree class consists of nonsingular modules. To…
Torsion theories play an important role in abelian categories and they have been widely studied in the last sixty years. In recent years, with the introduction of pretorsion theories, the definition has been extended to general…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over a field $k$. Let $R:= \text{End}\, E$. There is a functor $\mathscr{H}\!\!\mathit{om}_R(-,E)$ from the category of finitely presented torsion-free left $R$-modules to the category of abelian varieties…
The aim of this paper is to study the group of isomorphism classes of torsors of finite flat group schemes of rank 2 over a commutative ring $R$. This, in particular, generalises the group of quadratic algebras (free or projective), which…
For $n\geq 2$ we compute the homotopy groups of $(n-1)$-connected closed manifolds of dimension $(2n+1)$. Away from the finite set of primes dividing the order of the torsion subgroup in homology, the $p$-local homotopy groups of $M$ are…
In this paper, we compute the second homology groups of the automorphism group of a free group with coefficients in the abelianization of the free group and its dual group except for 2-torsion part, using combinatorial group theory.
